ESG Investments

This project will develop a new signature experience, graduate level Environment, Social, Governance Student Managed Investment Fund (ESG SMIF). This will require developing a course outline, an investment policy statement, and a development proposal to raise funds for students to manage. Students will be assisted by a newly created practical investment advisory group. This project will also update and advance ESG Investment modules developed over the previous academic year for F455 Advanced Portfolio Management, and F655 Investments. Finally, grant funding will foster the introduction and implementation of a new course, F667 ESG Investments, as a component of the Graduate Sustainability Certificate.
